# NOT — One's Complement Negation ## Description Performs a bitwise NOT operation (each 1 is set to 0, and each 0 is set to 1) on the destination operand and stores the result in the destination operand location. The destination operand can be a register or a memory location. ## Instruction | Opcode | Assembly | Op/En | Modern Mode | Legacy Mode | Description | |---------------|------------|-------|-------------|-------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| | F6 /2 | NOT r/m8 | M | Valid | Valid | Reverse each bit of r/m8. | | REX + F6 /2 | NOT r/m8* | M | Valid | N.E. | Reverse each bit of r/m8. | | F7 /2 | NOT r/m16 | M | Valid | Valid | Reverse each bit of r/m16. | | F7 /2 | NOT r/m32 | M | Valid | Valid | Reverse each bit of r/m32. | | REX.W + F7 /2 | NOT r/m64 | M | Valid | N.E. | Reverse each bit of r/m64. | - In 64-bit mode, r/m8 can not be encoded to access the following byte registers if a REX prefix is used: AH, BH, CH, DH. ## Information This instruction can be used with a LOCK prefix to allow the instruction to be executed atomically. In 64-bit mode, the instruction’s default operation size is 32 bits. Using a REX prefix in the form of REX.R permits access to additional registers (R8-R15). Using a REX prefix in the form of REX.W promotes operation to 64 bits. See the summary chart at the beginning of this section for encoding data and limits.
